So, while I've been in school land whats been happening here? I killed my capensis seedlings... er well watched them die as I sat their helplessly with no distilled water. The other plants (who are less water dependent) were not phased a bit by my water shortage (THANK GOODNESS). However, I have the FREAKIEST thing ever going on with my large trap making VFT. It's it's... it's making big oval leaves. Yah, the traps are fine, but the petiols are 3 inches long by 2 inches wide on some of the leaves! Talk about bizar! Well, thats about it for me, you?
